At more than 9:00 p.m., Du Lin met Sandra, who had to be interviewed. They opened a business suite in the Holiday Inn van Lille and asked the hotel waiter to bring some food and drink. Du Lin was a little hungry. Du Lin had planned to have an early rest at night, so he didn''t eat much. He heard Angela say that too full dinner would affect his sleep all night, so Du Lin only eats six full on nights without entertainment. There are still things at night, and it seems that you may not be able to sleep before 10 o''clock. It''s better to eat more.


    "Sorry for the delay.", at 9:20, Du Lin picked up the napkin and stained the oil on his lips. After throwing the napkin into the dining car, he walked out of the restaurant and sat on the sofa in the meeting room.


    Due to its proximity to the central part of the Empire and its border with the south, fanlil is also a city with more tourists. Usually, the identity of tourists is high and low, and the types of guest rooms are relatively complete. From the royal suite on the top floor to the ordinary standard room, you can see it elsewhere, and you can also see it here. In order to better talk about things, Du Lin asked for a business suite, which has three bedrooms, a restaurant and two reception halls similar to study and living room, mainly for those business elites.


    If you want an ordinary standard room... Sitting in the bedroom talking about things, there is always something wrong.


    Sandra smiled indifferently. Anyway, she had nothing to do at night. The night in the West was actually very boring. There was only about one-fifth of the red wine left in the red wine glass on the tea table, and her face became more and more ruddy. Her fingers crossed between her hair and her neck, lifted her hair, leaned back, rolled up her legs and pressed on the sofa, "nothing, just I need to think about other things."


    "It''s not what a gentleman should do to keep a lady waiting, but a gentleman will also be hungry." Du Lin replied with a smile, and then began the next topic, "Ms. Sandra, I don''t know what you have to say tonight? To be honest, I just came back from the imperial capital by steam locomotive. If we can, let''s make it simple."


    Sandra slightly tilted her head and made an action that was very inconsistent with her age. She actually spit out her tongue. Although only the tip of her tongue was exposed, Turin thought she had drunk too much.


    "Well, in fact, it''s not a big thing. Mennon invited Carlos, Cleveland and me to the venue of the western mining association this afternoon. He plans to manage the rest of the western mining association by himself. At the same time, he also plans to develop the surrounding land and build a high-end business center centered on that land." , Sandra listened here. She has been observing Dooling''s expression, but unfortunately, there has been no change in Dooling''s face since he sat down.


    "He hoped that we could invest and offered each of us a low interest loan of 1.5 million, which I refused."


    "But Carlos and Cleveland agreed. They are willing to continue to cooperate with mennon to develop the project."


    Dooling''s face was always very serious. He nodded, "Mennon''s idea is very good. I''ve been to that place, the location is very good, and the whole land is also very large. Before veril was built, it was actually a rural area, and the people of the West Mining Association took a lot of advantages. Now these advantages are cheap mennon. This is a good investment project, Ms. Sandra. Why do you refuse?"


    "This is a good chance!"


    For Carlos and Cleveland''s choice, Dooling did not pay attention. Capitalists always ran after interests and were "pardoned" from mennon From the day of, he knew that there must be something wrong with the small group of country club. To put it simply, these people have spent a lot of money and used a lot of contacts and human cards on mennong. Of course, they are not mennong''s supporters. They exchange mennong''s support for their business in this way.


    See, almost all the chemical plants in bondika have been moved to the West. Why? Because they are not allowed to build chemical plants elsewhere, or they are required to build more complex and expensive waste treatment plants. It seems that three or four years ago, a chemical plant poisoned many people in nearby towns because it discharged industrial sewage directly into the groundwater system After a large-scale demonstration and controversy, the imperial Environment Agency also began to legislate on the standards of ecological environment.


    But in the west, all this is not a problem. Mennong has solved all their worries. It is said that they have developed a "dry throwing method" The waste disposal method is to let the chemical fertilizer and sewage evaporate at high temperature in the pool, and finally leave solid powder particles. Then these powder particles are packaged and buried in the wilderness in the West. If they are not specifically looking for trouble, they may not be exposed until decades or even hundreds of years later when the West also ushers in all-round development. As for those potentially toxic gases, It was scattered by the wind on the west coast. As long as there were no dead people... Even the dead people, mennong could press down.


    They have invested a lot of resources in mennong. Now that mennong has been lifted, they will not "duplicate construction" In addition, mennon''s side is very stable. Even Powell called him personally. What''s wrong?


    But what surprised durin was that Sandra didn''t continue to cooperate with mennon, which was a strange thing.


    Sandra smiled and shook her head. Instead of answering Turin''s question, she talked about something unrelated to this, "I have many brothers and sisters!". Sandra picked up the glass and shook it. The red liquid kept shaking in the glass, circle after circle. The liquid just hanging down the glass wall had not fallen into the bottom and was submerged by the new wave. She took a sip, Looking at Du Lin, he said with a smile, "I''m not exaggerating the concept of ''more'', it''s really a lot."


    "As far as I know, there are about 50 brothers and sisters who are qualified to enter the Manor Restaurant and sit down for dinner on the night of the new year. Many others are not qualified to sit at the table, or even go back to the manor for the new year."


    "When I was a child, I didn''t understand why, why I had so many brothers and sisters, why there were so many brothers and sisters standing on the wall of the restaurant, looking at us sitting with envy, jealousy, hatred, ridicule, ridicule and even vicious eyes. I think they are very poor, but I don''t know how to change all this."


    "One year, I was about nine years old?", Sandra put the wine glass back on the tea table, picked up the bottle and poured some more. She squeezed her eyes and recalled for a while, "about 19 to 10 years old. There are three days before the new year. My grandfather, who is also the grandfather of most children, let''s get together. There are about more than 100 children. He gave us a question."


    "The question is very simple. What would you do if there were ten dollars on the ground?"


    "Since that night, many brothers and sisters have never appeared again. They have returned to their families and become ordinary people. Like most ordinary people in this society, they need to work hard for promotion and salary increase, worry about a small amount of money and ask for people for small things. They are deprived of the right to use their family name and are not allowed Tell anyone about their origins. They are not even allowed to appear in front of family members. "


    "How did I answer at that time..." Sandra picked up slightly at the corner of her mouth, "I won''t tell you."


    "But every year since then, I will sit in that cold room and have a dinner with a group of indifferent brothers and sisters that is not satisfactory at all."


    "At that time, my grandfather told me that as an excellent family member, he should not only be able to see farther, but also be able to see through all illusions, see through ruthless practice, and find the most correct direction for himself."


    "Only those who have such a strict foundation can be members of the family of..."


    "I''ve seen your past..." Sandra didn''t hide anything about this very impolite behavior that could be considered offensive, "I''m surprised. It''s only at this time that I realized that maybe you are the kind of person my grandfather said. If you can really stand at the starting point, you can see the end. From tenar, every bet you made was placed in the right place. You hardly missed it in a few years."


    At this point, Sandra suddenly shut her mouth. She paused for a moment and added, "you may have missed it, but you made up for everything and hid it, and only let people see your completely correct every step."


    "Fortune can be accumulated. I firmly believe this. You asked me why I didn''t choose to continue to cooperate with mennon?" Sandra laughed with a good voice, "Because you have always been a good person, not to choose, to choose mennong, who has failed many times, which will make it impossible for me to go back to the manor and eat that awful dinner during the Chinese New Year!"


    After hearing this, Du Lin was silent for a moment. "Thank you very much for your favor, which makes me very frightened. What if I''m wrong, or even wrong in the next step?"


    "You can''t be wrong, it''s a woman''s intuition!" Sandra smiled happily. She smiled for a while before she put away her laughter and asked Doolin a question, "what would you do if you saw ten dollars on the ground?"
